Chapter 262 Do you want to be my queen?

It seems that saying one more word is a great gift to the whole country, but now, people can even say sweet words.

It's unbelievable.

She almost couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with her memory.

"Your Majesty, please stop joking. Over the years, Your Majesty and I have met less than once..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by his chuckle.

"Heh, Qingyi, are you blaming me for not coming to see you earlier?"

She quickly defended herself, "I didn't!"

She really didn't mean that.

She just wanted to say that they had seen each other very rarely over the years, but hadn't they always been living in peace?

How could I suddenly miss you so much that I can't bear it?

"That's because you were engaged in the past. I'm afraid that if I see you, I won't be able to control myself and do something to hurt you..."

That's why I forced myself to try not to actively look for her.

He did it, but no one knew how much pain he endured. There were many times when he almost couldn't bear it anymore.

Fortunately, God finally heard his prayers and made her appear before him.

Sure enough, if you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

"But things are different now. You are a free man now. I can see you whenever I want. Why do I have to be so cautious?"

"If we don't act in time, what will happen if someone interferes again?"

"Shen Qingyi, I won't let anyone else take you away."

He was young at that time and his father was still on the throne, so it was not his turn to make decisions on many matters. Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as she was betrothed to Xiao Yelin and could only reluctantly agree to it.

But now, he is the sky of this Yun Kingdom.

No one can control what he wants or doesn't want.

These words were said so bluntly that Shen Qingyi didn't know what to say.

There was a moment of silence, and she murmured in an extremely complicated manner.

"You can't come to my room so late. This will damage my reputation."

Xiao Jue sighed, "That's because you didn't reply..."

"You are the only one in the world who has the guts to not reply to my letter. Aren't you very afraid of me? How could you dare not reply?"

Shen Qingyi responded in a muffled voice, "The emperor's letter is a private one. There is no law in our dynasty that requires us to reply to the emperor's private letter. I haven't broken any law, so why should I be afraid?"

Not bad, you even know to bring up the law, Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows.

"But I clearly sent Chen Yaoxing to bring you an oral order, asking you to reply. If you don't obey, you will be disobeying the imperial order and disrespecting His Majesty."

Shen Qingyi: "..."

"Then, Your Majesty, will you punish me?"

"Since Qingyi is now in my arms, I will not punish her. However, this will not happen again. In the whole world, only my queen can do whatever she wants to me. Qingyi, do you understand?"

Oh, I see. This is a blatant temptation for her to be his queen.

Shen Qingyi became interested.

"Do whatever you want? What do you mean? Your Majesty, can you explain it in detail?"

"Literally, apart from court affairs, you can do whatever you want to me in private..."

Is it okay to beat him?

Is it okay to covet his throne?

Shen Qingyi expressed her disbelief, but she didn't dare say it out loud. Either of these two points was too outrageous, and no one would say anything even if she was dragged away and her property was confiscated and her family was exterminated.

Is it true that she was influenced by my younger sister's theory of female emperor?

Otherwise, how could such a crazy idea pop up in your head?

"So, Qingyi wants to be my queen?"

He asked in a low voice, his voice so hoarse that it made her ears itch for no reason.

Shen Qingyi shrank back and said, "Before I answer this question, could the emperor promise me one thing?"

"Qingyi, tell me about it."

He answered quickly.

After getting permission, Shen Qingyi spoke slowly.

"Yes, that's right. Your Majesty knows that my father and mother have a deep affection for each other. They have always been my role models. In my heart, I long for a relationship like that."

"Of course, I understand that Your Majesty is the ruler of a country and is destined to have three harems and six courtyards. This request is excessive for Your Majesty."

"Therefore, I do not ask the Emperor to do this. I only hope that the Emperor can give me an undated imperial edict of divorce and a house."

"If the Emperor has someone else, the imperial decree of divorce will take effect immediately, and I, a minister, will be allowed to leave the palace."

"I know that there is no precedent for divorce in the imperial family, but I also know that Your Majesty is different from other emperors. As long as Your Majesty wants, this can be done, right?"

Divorce decree!!!

These words were extremely harsh. Xiao Jue pursed his thin lips, feeling a little unhappy.

They haven't even gotten married yet, but she's already considering divorce. Is he so unimportant in her heart?

But when he thought about it carefully, he could understand her feelings.

Most women in the world are worried about the gains and losses of marriage, and it is inevitable that they have concerns. Compared with other women who are only jealous, it is rare for her to have such thoughts.

Coming back to his senses, he sighed softly and said, "What if I don't want three palaces and six courtyards?"

After experiencing so much, Shen Qingyi had long lost interest in things like "if" and did not believe it at all, so she directly denied this statement.

"There are too many unforeseen circumstances. Let's not discuss this hypothesis for now. If Your Majesty can agree to this, then I will try to get along with Your Majesty."

"If you do not agree, please, Your Majesty, spare me for the sake of my father and brother's tireless efforts for the Yun Kingdom."

"I, a humble servant, have low aspirations. I do not seek true love, nor do I wish to be trapped within the walls of a palace, battling a group of women to the death."

Hearing this, Xiao Jue was almost laughing out of anger.

She was unwilling to give him even an ounce of trust, and had never even considered falling in love with him. She agreed to try to get along with him only because she was forced by the situation.

He was pursuing her too closely and she was powerless to refuse.

Is he so untrustworthy?

Restraining his dissatisfaction, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, I promise you, if I ever have another woman in the future, not only will you be allowed to leave the palace, I'll grant you a mansion and even make you a female marquis. How about that? But I have a condition."

Shen Qingyi: “???”

He is the emperor, there is nothing he can't do. Why does he need to make conditions to her?

But she never expected that he would agree to her conditions and even promise to make her a female marquis.

There have been female marquises in history, but that female marquis was a famous Iron Lady. She was able to deploy troops and strategize, was proficient in all kinds of weapons, and was as good as anyone in leading troops to fight.

He was promoted to a noble title step by step based on his military achievements. What qualifications did she have?

"Uh, what are the conditions? Your Majesty, please tell me."

To offer such a large stake, the conditions must be extraordinary.

But now that things have come to this, no matter what the conditions are, she has to bite the bullet and take over the conversation.
